i was interviewed saturday on the get real radio station 107.1 & listened to it later with my mom, who had missed it. i heard myself say "um" maybe a hundred times! oi! well...bless my 11 year old son who later told me that "um" is just thinking & there's nothing wrong with it. i'm working on taking that in.

BOOK available now! (click on picture)

"rachel's words and art are an uncommon elixir that travels straight to the heart by way of the soul. her book is simply a spiritual must. i've dreamed about its pages and know you will too. profound, transformational, and elegant." SARK ~ author, artist, succulent wild woman PlanetSARK.com ************************************************** "i was so moved by this lovely and honest book by rachel awes. i found myself returning to its pages day after day for a daily dose of meaningful inspiration. rachel's gift for pairing her unique illustrations with touching, often profound, wisdom spoke to my most tender pieces of what it means to live bravely, love deeply, and pay attention to the beauty that exists in our everyday lives. "all i did was listen" truly inspired me to lean into my life a bit closer, and take a closer listen for all big and small ways it teaches, uplifts, and heals." Kelly Rae Roberts ~ artist. author. possibilitarian.

"no one listens, they tell me, + so i listen...+ i tell them what they have just told me, + i sit in silence, listening to them, letting them grieve. 'julian, you are wise,' they say, 'you have been gifted with understanding.' all i did was listen." *julian of norwich*
